two months later.

On the top of Lingxiao Mountain, in the cave cultivation quiet room.

Ling Yunhong, who had been in seclusion for two months after taking six second-grade low-grade stone spirit walnuts in succession, felt that the Dantian in his abdomen had been filled with liquid spiritual power, touching the bottleneck of the sixth level of foundation building. His expression moved slightly and he opened his mouth. Binocular.

He waved his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, calling out the remaining seven stone spirit walnuts on his body.

Looking at these seven stone spirit walnuts, a bright light flashed in his eyes.

"The time is ripe to break through to the sixth level of foundation building. Whether you can successfully enter the sixth level of foundation building depends on these seven stone spirit walnuts that contain pure spiritual power."

With a groan, Ling Yunhong first placed four of the Stone Spirit Walnuts beside him, then fired three bursts of spiritual power to shatter the shells of the remaining three Stone Spirit Walnuts in his hand, peeled out the walnut flesh, and stuffed it into his mouth.

The shells of the three Shiling walnuts contained very little spiritual energy. The real essence was the walnut pulp, and the walnut shells were very hard and had no effect on Ling Yunhong, so he put them aside.

As soon as the pulp of the three stone spirit walnuts entered his stomach, Ling Yunhong felt a huge and pure spiritual power filling all the meridians in his body.

Ling Yunhong didn't dare to delay, so he quickly closed his eyes, activated his skills, and frantically refined the spiritual power contained in the three walnut meats, sending them into his Dantian.

At the same time, he also set off a huge wave of spiritual energy, frantically absorbing the rich spiritual power in this training room into his body.

Relying on the pure spiritual power contained in the three walnut meats, the rich spiritual power in the training room, and the spiritual power in his own Dantian, he crazily attacked the bottleneck of the Dantian.

Such a continuous impact lasted for nearly half a day. Although the bottleneck of the dantian was shaken, and even several small cracks appeared on the bottleneck, the spiritual power contained in the three walnut pulps in the belly was also refined.

There is hope that the bottleneck will be broken, so Ling Yunhong is naturally unwilling to stop.

He calculated how much spiritual power he would need to break through the bottleneck, then picked up the two stone spirit walnuts placed beside him, used his spiritual power to shatter the shells of the two walnuts, and ate the pulp to refine it. It turned into liquid spiritual power and hit the bottleneck again.

One day later, when Ling Yunhong's frantic absorption of the rich spiritual energy in the practice quiet room stopped, a shattering sound also sounded in his Dantian.

Following this, his aura quickly increased and he successfully entered the sixth level of foundation building.

"I have finally broken through this bottleneck. With this kind of cultivation, I, the Ling family, have some confidence to challenge the Pingyun Yang family."

Ling Yunhong opened his eyes and felt the benefits brought by this breakthrough in cultivation. His face lit up with joy and he muttered to himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes again and started to use his skills to refine the remaining power of the two stone spirit walnut pulps he had taken for the second time in his belly to consolidate his cultivation.

Half a month later, when Ling Yunhong had consolidated his cultivation, he left this quiet training room and left the cave.

He first went to the clan treasury and took out a lot of spiritual objects.

He also found Ling Pengxing, a new foundation-building monk in the clan, and gave one of the two remaining second-level low-grade stone spirit walnuts to Ling Pengxing.

Finally, he went to the General Affairs Hall to find Ling Pengliang, the new chief elder of the Ling clan.

Ling Yunhong felt that Ling Pengliang's aura was nearly twice as strong as it was two months before the retreat. His expression moved slightly and he spoke.

"The seventh level of Qi training is not bad. Practice hard and strive to reach the perfection of Qi training as soon as possible. This will also allow you to secure your position as the elder of the family."

"If you can reach the perfection of qi training before other clan members, the Xiaobailing water I got two years ago can also be given to you first."

"Afterwards, the family can also prepare another pulse-protecting pill for you."

When Ling Pengliang heard this, his eyes suddenly became hot.

He originally agreed to the previous generation of great elder Ling Jinxian to take up the position of great elder, which had many affairs, was extremely time-consuming, and would slow down the progress of cultivation. The main reason was that the great elder was in the middle and upper echelons of the clan. If the family could be established, The base spirit creature will definitely take priority over him.

"Thank you, Third Patriarch." Ling Pengliang thanked him with his hands in hand.

"There is no need to thank you. Whether you can get the family's Little Bailing Water and Pulse Protection Pill depends entirely on you. In recent months, has anyone from the Yang family come to look for me?" Ling Yunhong waved his hand in reply, and then asked .

"Yes, Yang Changxing, the supreme elder of the Yang family, came to the mountains two months ago to look for you. However, when he learned that you were in seclusion and would be difficult to leave for a short period of time, he left a storage bag and left. here."

Ling Pengliang took out a storage bag from the counter compartment in front of him, handed it to Ling Yunhong, and replied.

Hearing this, Ling Yunhong reached out and took the storage bag.

There was no spiritual brand placed in this storage bag, so Ling Yunhong injected his spiritual consciousness into it very easily.

In an instant, three medicine bottles and a letter tilted out of the storage bag.

Ling Yunhong took the three medicine bottles in his hands, opened the bottle caps, and poured out the six pills contained in them. He looked at them carefully and found that there were no defects in the efficacy of these pills, and they were all of medium quality. When he took the Spirit Gathering Pill, he took the six Spirit Gathering Pills back into the three medicine bottles.

Then, he picked up the letter on the ground and read it carefully.

There were a lot of small words written on it.

"My family is busy with affairs. Since Fellow Daoist Ling is in retreat, I will return to the family first. The fifteen acres of yellow bud grass that matures every three years on the spiritual veins of Rock Scale Snake Cave will trouble Fellow Daoist Ling to pick it alone."

"The portion of yellow bud grass that belongs to my Yang family, I will come to your Ling family to get it in half a year."

"As for the three bottles of spirit-gathering pills, there are six spirit-gathering pills in total. They are Pengyun's reward for guarding the spirit veins of the Snake Cave for three years."

Ling Yunhong saw that the content of the letter written by Yang Changxing was quite polite, and that he had indeed missed the appointment, so he was late to the boundary of Jiaomang Lake, and picked mature yellow bud grass from the spiritual veins of the Rock Scale Snake Cave, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Yang Changxing asked him to travel more than ten miles alone to find out about the snake cave spiritual veins.

He put the letter away and told Ling Pengliang.

"Peng Liang, I want to go to the spiritual veins in the Rock Scale Snake Cave where Pengyun is stationed at the boundary of Jiao Python Lake, and pull out the fifteen acres of mature yellow bud grass planted there."

"During the three years that Pengyun was stationed at the Spirit Vein of the Rock Scale Snake Cave in Jiaomang Lake, I took the salary that I did not receive and the spiritual stones that the family should repay to him in the past three years from the family treasury. During this trip to the Snake Cave, I will give him these spiritual objects together, and they will be taken from the clan’s account book, and you will write them down in detail in the account book later.”

"Okay." Ling Pengliang nodded after hearing this.

Ling Pengliang had not yet become the Great Elder three years ago. When he was learning how to run a Taoism with the previous Great Elder Ling Juxian, Ling Juxian informed him in advance of many secrets in the clan that were difficult for ordinary people to know. pungent.

Among them is the matter of the family and the Yang family jointly occupying the next spiritual vein of Jiao Python Lake. "I've finished talking about my search for you this time. During my absence, if there is something difficult for you to solve in the clan, you should go look for Uncle Eleven who has just retired from the position of great elder. Or summon the other elders of the clan to discuss it together in the meeting hall." Ling Yunhong ordered.

"I understand, Third Patriarch." Ling Peng said coolly.

Ling Yunhong nodded lightly, turned into a breeze, and quickly left the place.

Ling Pengliang looked at Ling Yunhong's leaving figure, his expression moved slightly, and he murmured to himself.

"With the help of a small Bailing water and a pulse protection pill, the probability of breaking through the foundation building can be increased by at least [-]%."

"Although [-]% is a small amount, it is much better than the slim chance of breaking through the foundation building alone."

"If we miss what Third Grandfather just promised and are seized by other clansmen, they can break through to perfect qi training first and win the family's share of Xiao Bailing Water and Pulse Protection Pill. According to the family's finances in recent years, I think It may be impossible to obtain a first-class foundation-building spiritual object before the best foundation-building years."

"Compared to other tribesmen, although my cultivation qualifications are not much better than theirs, my salary is much higher than theirs. I can use this to buy spiritual fruits or spiritual fruits that are far more effective than cultivation elixirs and have pure spiritual power. It is the spiritual water of heaven and earth that has no impurities and contains huge amounts of pure spiritual power, opening up the realm of cultivation."

After such planning, Ling Pengliang also made up his mind. He had saved more than a hundred spiritual stones in the past few years and originally planned to buy a first-level high-grade magic weapon, and used them all to buy the stone spirit walnut tree on the top of the mountain two months ago. The first-order high-grade stone spirit walnuts produced by the tree failed to attack the second-order.

As for the purchase of a first-level high-grade magic weapon, it has been postponed indefinitely. Anyway, he is now the elder of the family and rarely leaves the family.

……

Eight days later.

Ling Yunhong, who left Lingxiao Mountain, entered Xiyangfang City in Xiyang County, which is adjacent to the boundary of Bailingmen and Jiaomang Lake.

As soon as he entered this market, Ling Yunhong went straight to the two-story loft-style Lingxiao Duobao Pavilion with a courtyard opened by his family.

This shop is the only one opened by the Ling family in Xiyangfang City. It mainly sells four items: elixirs, magic weapons, spiritual talismans, and spiritual rice.

There are also some other spiritual objects, but not many, and the quality is not very good.

But even so, the business of this Duobao Pavilion is still good, relying on the four items of elixirs, magic weapons, spiritual talismans, and spiritual rice, especially the elixirs.

Every other month, Duobao Pavilion will sell a bottle of two second-grade low-grade spirit-gathering pills.

This also makes Duobao Pavilion often visited by foundation-building monks, which also increases the reputation of Duobao Pavilion and brings the flow of people to a higher level.

In addition, Xiyangfang City, where this store is located, is located close to the boundary of Jiaomang Lake and has a large number of people.

The family specially assigned Ling Yunfeng, the only first-level high-level talisman maker in the family, Ling Yunan, the first-level high-level weapon refiner, Ling Yunhui, the first-level mid-level alchemist, and Ling Xiaojiang, the first-level low-level alchemist who followed Ling Yunhui to learn alchemy. All four tribesmen were dispatched to Duobao Pavilion to refine spiritual objects for Duobao Pavilion.

After Ling Yunhong entered Lingxiao Duobao Pavilion, he found Ling Yunfu, the fourth elder of the Ling family who handled all the chores in Duobao Pavilion.

There were many people in Duobao Pavilion. Ling Yunfu saw Ling Yunhong arriving and took him into a quiet room in the backyard of Duobao Pavilion.

"Tenth brother, have you heard any news about the hundred-year monster beast riot recently?" Ling Yunhong asked as soon as he entered the quiet room.

Ling Yunfu was the only son of Ling Ruxian, the elder of the previous generation of the Ling family, and ranked tenth in Yunzi's generation.

Since three years ago, when the Ling family and the Yang family started planting spiritual plants in the snake cave at the boundary of Jiaomang Lake, Ling Yunhong entrusted Ling Yunfu, who was in charge of Duobao Pavilion, to pay more attention to the century-old monster riot. If there is a change, Hui Clan must be summoned immediately.

This move was also to avoid the hundred-year monster riot, which put Ling Pengyun, who was stationed in the snake cave spiritual vein at the boundary of Jiaoman Lake, in danger.

This time Ling Yunhong went to the Snake Cave Spirit Vein on the boundary of Jiaoman Lake to collect yellow bud grass. He happened to be passing through Xiyangfang City, so he came to make inquiries and see the business of Duobao Pavilion.

"I haven't heard the exact time when the Hundred Years Monster Uprising started, but four days ago, I heard a few words from a regular customer who often came to Duobao Pavilion to buy cultivation elixirs and hunted monsters for a living. .”

"According to that regular customer, in the past five or six days, even if we only penetrated two to three thousand miles into the boundary of Jiao Python Lake, we would often encounter groups of monsters, making it extremely difficult to kill the monsters. In the past, we had to go deep into the Jiao Python Lake area. Even at an equal distance, there are groups of monsters and beasts, but not many."

"If what the monk said is true, I'm afraid the century-old beast tide will come soon."

"Three days ago, I passed this news back to the clan through the monk who specializes in delivering letters in the market. It is estimated that the monk who delivers letters is still on the way." Ling Yunfu frowned when he heard this. He spoke.

"This matter is ninety-nine times true. It has not gone deep into the boundary of Jiao Python Lake. Recently, there has been a lot of news about groups of monsters. It is estimated that it will spread out in a few days. Taking advantage of the fact that the market prices have not skyrocketed, Buy more auxiliary medicines needed for refining elixirs, spiritual iron for refining magic weapons, talisman grass for refining talisman paper, or monster animal skins." Ling Yunhong's face darkened when he heard this.

"Third brother, I understand this. When I learned this news four days ago from a regular customer who hunted monsters for a living, I already started to act like this and entrusted the monks in the market who specialize in delivering letters to bring them with me. The letter conveyed the purchase of spiritual objects to the stewards of the stores opened by the family in various cities." Ling Yunfu said a word, took out a bulging storage bag from the storage bag and handed it to Ling Yunhong.

"Third brother, what are contained in this storage bag are the auxiliary medicines that I have been searching for in Xiyangfang City for the past three days and can be used to refine dozens of furnaces of second-level low-grade spirit-gathering pills."

"The spiritual stones spent to purchase these spiritual materials will all be taken from Duobao Pavilion's account."

"The hundred-year monster beast riot is not far away, and the family that refines this spirit-gathering pill has not cultivated the auxiliary medicine. I am afraid that if the monster beast riots, it will be troublesome to send this batch of materials back to the family. I planned to buy it in the next two days. A batch of auxiliary medicines were sent back to the family together. I didn't expect you, third brother, to come, so I gave these auxiliary medicines to you first."

Ling Yunhong was very satisfied with this answer.

"Tenth brother, you are indeed shrewd in business, but you still need to pay more attention to the matter of childbirth. Presumably a month before the news of the eleventh uncle's abdication, the eighteenth brother led a convoy to this store to deliver supplies. I’ve informed you.”

"Although you have many heirs under your knees, there is no heir with spiritual roots who can take up the leadership of your lineage."

"Don't let Uncle Eleven leave this world with such regrets."

Ling Yunfu's eyes darkened and he said with a hint of helplessness. "Third brother, it is too difficult to give birth to a child with spiritual roots. I will work hard. If it doesn't work, I will have two more children."

"It's up to you, but the concubine you take must have a clean life, and you must treat her well and not treat her badly," Ling Yunhong said.

"Understood." Ling Yunfu nodded.

Afterwards, Ling Yunhong asked Ling Yunfu about Duobao Pavilion's business before leaving.
